Aa The Waters Fall.
Vancouver, B. C,, Jnne 18.: Latest
advices from different points state that
the Fraser has receded fully six feet
from the high water mark at all points
between Popeum and Langley and plow
ing and seeding of the land covered by
the floods :i few days ago has com
menced. Steamers leave New West
minster tomorrow, with seed for settlers
and, if the fine weather lasts, a large
area will be under crop by the end - of
the week. The weather is still very hot
and this caused a light rise in the inter
tor. At Yale, the river rose one inch
Sunday night, at Katz landing it is now
stationary. Even if the water should
rise several inches, no damage would -
done owing to the steady fall daring ue
past week. .
Trains are now being Bent Ant daily on
tne uanaaian facinc, and .transfers are
made without much difficulty. - A large
gang is still at work repairing the line,
which is thought will be in good condi-
tion mucn earlier than was at first an
ticipated. All mails to date have been
received. The city of London, Ontario,
suDscriDeu $ouu, ana its citizens over
$800, to the relief fund for the Bufferers
from the flood. Eastern papers . con
taming exaggeratedreports of the flood
nave last been received, and mucn in
dignation is expressed by the citizens.
The railroad reports state that tie
Fraser river rose 105 feet above low
water, in high gorges; the Colombia,
near Juanita, 70 feet, and the Pend
d'Oreille river 50 feet. - . . ;
The Oregon Navigation. .
Chicago, June 18. In i ail way circles
it is believed that E.-McNeil, general
manager of the Iowa Central, is Boon to
become receiver of the Oregon Bail way
& Navigation copmany. Mr, McNeil
was at Union Pacific headquarters today
and lelt for Portland this evening. He
' carries with him a bound volume of
orders made in the Union Pacific case
in order probably to familiarize himself
with the duties of a receiver arid the
action by the circuit court in a multi
pncity of matters brought to its atten
tion by the receivers of Union Pacific.
While nothing is known at Union Pa
cific headquarters regarding the inten
tion of the bond and stockholders of the
Oregon Railway & Navigation Com pan v.
it is thought a bill asking for a. separate
receiver will be filed July 1, the day de
lauit in the payment of interest takes
place ra the part of the Union Pacific,
It was decided to file the bill , June 15,
but conditions arose which .prevented
the consummation of Dougherty - and
Cook's recommendation, and the high
water.in the Golumbia country may have
had something to do with the witholding
ol the bill of July 1. It is expected,
however, that Mr. McNeil's visit west at
this time Will have very much to do
with the appointment of an . Oregon
Railway & Navigation receiver. -
Along the Northern Pacific. '
Tacoma, Jnne 18.. General Superin
tendent Dickinson, of the Northern Pa
cific railroad, who returned tonight from
Idaho, says through, trains wil be run
without transfer by next Monday.
Trains are now running- over the main
line, with a transfer of sixteen miles by
boat on Lake Pend d'OreiUefrom Sand
Point to . Hope, Idaho.! v The main
trouble now is at the Priest river trestle,
six miles west of Hope, 100 bents of the
trestle having been washed away. . Des
olation reigns in the valley of Clark's
Fork, the flooded settlers having lost
vutHr.au. .

: ; Gbesham, J nne 18. Joseph Eichonrst,
: a German, aged 45 years, who- resided
near Rigner'o mill, three miles south.of
this place, committed suicide at 8 o'clock
Highest pf all in Leavening Power
this morning by placing the mnzzle of
shotgun to his heart and pulling the
trigger with his toes. . Eichonrst came
to this place from California several
years ago, and has suffered with a dis
ease which was incurable so long as he
remained in this damp climate. Yes
terday he appealed to his mother, with
whom he has resided and who is the
financial agent of the family, for money
to go east of the mountains in search of
health. She replied that if he. was
going to die, he might as well die here
and Eave expenses. It is believed that
this is what caused him to commit
the act. The deceased left a wife and
one child. Coroner Hughes was notified
by wire. ' -
A Storm Cloud Burst.
Beaddock, Pa., June 18. A cloud
burst over Turtle creek valley, six miles
from this city, this tvfternoon, destroyed
growing crops and hurled houses from
their foundations. The loss of three
lives is reported. The storm cloud cov
ered an area several miles in length and
was from two to three miles wide. Tur
tie creeK and . iDomeon 8 creek were
raised 10 feet above high-water mark in
ntteen minutes. The strongest force of
cloud broke upon the . mining towns
above Plum creek and Sandy creek.
Houses wereypicked up .by the current
and carried with it. . John Hodovosky,
a miner, was in the house. Mike Boski,
another miner, is reported to have been
drowned while sleeping in one of the
lower rooms of his home. A daughter
of John Wanzel, 16 years old, is also
said to have-been lost in the flood. The
total damage is estimated at $100,000,
The Situation Serious.
Mount Olive, I1L, June 18. The
mining situation here is now assuming
aserions and . threatening aspect. The
Sseventh Regiment, I. N.'G'., arrived
this afternoon. It is here to assist the
United States marshals in arresting un
ruly miners, who for the past week have
been conducting things with such a high
hand, stopping freight trains, breaking
car seals and, when coal was found, not
permitting it to be carried through the
city, out' unloading it and .taking it
borne. Saturday nieht United States
Marshal Brintan and . biB ' assistants
made an effort to arrest the guilty per
sons, but to no avail, for they were sur
rounded by the angry miners and forced
to release their prisoners. Owing to the
presence of the militia, however,- this
evening the guilty parties are being ar
rested when found.
Alone the Wheeling &. Lake Brie.
Steobenville, June' 18. Very few
miners along the Wheeling & Lake Erie
in this county accepted the Columbus
compromise, and the situation along the
line is critical: Serious trouble may de
velop before a settlement ' is reached.
The Long Run miners accepted the com
promise and went to work today. The
company tried to start the Laurel and
Dillonvale mines, but the miners re
fused to .allow them and threatened
violence- The trouble grew out of start
ing p the Long Run mines,1 and the
congregating there of, miners from
Dillon vale and Laurel. No violence was
offered today, but the miners are organ
izing at both the latter places and are
expected to march to Long Run in the
morning to prevent miners working.
The Army of Idleness. '
Sanders' army was yesterday found
guilty of train stealing at Leavenworth,
Kan. A number of them tried to es
cape, and one was shot."r Louisville, Ky.,

gress. Christopher Columbus Jones has
opened headquarters Philadelphia for
the purpose of recruiting another army.

Deafness Cannot he Cared
By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portioned the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of tbe
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you bave a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to. its normal condi
tion, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten' are caused by
catarrh, which is. nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (.caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

is an old sufferer from inflammatory
rheumatism, but has not heretofore been
troubled in this climate". Last winter
he went up into Wisconsin, and in con
sequence has had another attack, nit
came upon me very acute and severe,"
he said. "My joints swelled and became
inflamed ; sore to touch or almost to look
at. Upon the urgent request of my
Vnother-in-law I tried Chamberlain's
Pain Balm to reduce the swelling and
ease the pain, and to my agreeable sur
prise, it did both. I have used three
fifty-cent bottles and believe it to be the
finest thing for' rheumatism, pains and
